The HP LaserJet P2055dn Printer Drivers set has all the drivers you need to ensure this printer works as expected. This monochrome printer is made for a high volume of printing, but it won't work properly if you don't have the right drivers installed on your computer. They might be the smallest program on your hard drive, but drivers are essential to getting machines like this to work right.

Primary Features

The HP LaserJet P2055dn is a great printer when it comes to monochrome printing, but you need the great drivers to ensure that it can print your many documents. Drivers ensure that your commands go through properly. Without drivers, your printer may not understand your command to print a document. Drivers are there to translate your commands so that they make sense to the printer hardware.

While the LaserJet P2055dn doesn't have that many features, you need drivers to ensure you can access all the available features. Without these drivers, your printer may not print at all or it might be unable to perform certain tasks.

Easy Installation

Like many other drivers, this one is very easy to install. It's a small program that requires little hard drive space. On top of that, it can be used with many different versions of Windows. You can use with from Windows XP to Windows 10 and any other versions in between. This includes Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and more. The best thing about the installation is that this program scans your Windows installation and uses the best driver for your printer.

This includes scanning your system to see if it's a 32-bit or 64-bit OS. There is a big difference between the two and many people don't know which one they have. This package will scan and see which version you have. That makes the entire installation very easy on you whether you're computer savvy or not.

Only One Machine

There aren't many downsides to this program, but the one problem is that it only works with a single printer and nothing else. HP sells many different printer models and you usually need drivers for all of them, but this system only works with the LaserJet P2055dn. While it might scan to see which version of Windows you have, it won't scan for your printer. This means that you need to ensure you have this printer model before downloading the drivers.

If you're unsure, then checking the printer model is very simple. Just go over to the printer and read the model number. Each model is different, but you can usually find the model number either on the front or side of the machine.
